If you get ZMA don't sweat it... if ATC interests you then go for it. Don't let the details deter you. A year in a place like ZMA just ripping strips, doing flight plans, etc. you can learn A LOT.

Good luck to you and nice post on the time line... very helpful for a lot of the people who come on this board.
What kind of pay do you receive when you're waiting to train, and working in the facility? Do you get $9/hour, like you do in OK City?
